The Splendor Series
by ​Space Cowboys

Type: Jewel tokens are used to buy cards that provide points and bonuses toward the purchase of more expensive cards.
This is a recent Brewster acquisition. What's most interesting about this game is that the ladies in the family have mastered it and can easily stomp the boys. Aaron and Micah are still trying to figure out why the girls seemed to catch on so easily to a game with precious jewels as the main commodity. It's a mystery!

The main thrust of this game is correctly choosing from a limited supply of jewel tokens in order to purchase cards that will compliment each other as you use them to purchase more expensive cards (which also have higher point values). There's also the opportunity of inviting "Nobles" who provide 3-point bonuses to player with a certain number of cards. Only fifteen points will win the game, ​but it takes good strategy to get there before the other players.

One thing we really love is that the jewel tokens aren't made out of cardboard. They're a sturdy plastic coin with enough heft that every member of our family has commented on how they like the way the tokens feel.
Splendor
This game stretches the players ability to think multiple turns into the future, develop a plan to acquire the cards the need, and do it without exceeding 10 jewels!
Cities of Splendor Expansion
This box contains 4 individual expansions. Each one puts a new twist that requires the players to develop new strategies to win the game.
